C ollege Reporter The Sky Rocket Staff of this year attempted a new project which they feel has been quite worthwhile. They have had their issues mimeographed fat schoolj instead of printed as in former years. As a result, the news of clubs, sports, and other activities has been presented to the school at more frequent intervals. There has also been an increased opportunity for art work in original designs for covers and headings and illustrations. The copies have been more colorful and more varied in interest. The literary section has included samples of work from all classes, and special features, such as a boarder's diary, college corner, travel notes by faculty members, which have added interest to this newspaper-magazine. The literary sponsor is Mrs. Mary Fellandg the art sponsor, Miss Mary Moultong and the staff stenographer and compiler, Miss Jane McMahon. Twenty-Two

JUNIOR CLASS ACTIVITIES The Junior Class, nee 1930's Sophomores, stood on the September campus of Starrett School and held a lighted match to the wick of a brand-new sky-rocket, chock-full of the coming events of their third year. When the rocket, suddenly ignited, zoomed forth into the air, the Junior Starettes gazed with open-mouthed anticipation. The first thing they saw was the glittering comet of success promising glory to the future editors, printers and publishers of the 1932 Sky-Rocket. As they watched it, the comet of success suddenly swerved and seemed to lose its smooth gliding grace, then seeming to gather new strength, it straightened out and again continued on its course. This was the difficult path they encountered when many hardships met them as they took up the task, together with the desire to put out a copy a month instead of three or four a year, which at the outset seemed to be beset with diiiiculties, but which later, under the talented editor- ship and guidance of Janet Klein, turned out to be more of a pleasure than a task! Suddenly two brilliant stars fell into the line of vision: one, symbolic of the merit and gratitude felt for Mrs. Felland, the sponsor and heaven-endorsed Simon Legree of the staff, the other, equally as brilliant, represented our appreciation for Miss Moulton's exquisite art contributions. Then the Sky-Rocket poured forth many small and large stars representing the juniors' athletes, and among these we recognize Janet Klein's ability in captaining the Boarders' Hockey Team to victoryg Jane Bransky winning the diving exhibition, Madelyn I-Iaak's talent in dancing, Janet Klein's fine horsemanshipg and lastly, Jane Bransky as a plenty peppy Cheer Leader. More stars of a larger size attract us! Lots of favorable criticism for girls with interest in higher planes of things, such as our worhsiped group of poets and authors- ,Iane Bransky, Jane Banning, Eloise Morse, janet Klein, and Anita Grosse, our tender- hearted and efhcient Social Welfare workers, Anne Trinder and Louise I-Iinmang then our intra-school ofhcers-jane Banning as Corresponding Secretary of the G. A. A., and Janet Klein as Secretary of the Student Council. The Starettes rub their eyes and pinch themselves. Are they dreaming? Before them QCOntinued on Page 28.j T'zc'vn ly- Tlirrr
